Description
Navigate to different slides via browser back/forward buttons not working When the lgHash plugin is enabled, changing slides creates new hashes, but pressing the back/forward buttons does not change the slides or closes the gallery, but completely reloads the page
Steps to reproduce
- Enable hash plugin
- Open gallery
- Click forward 3 times
- Click browser back button
Demo: https://www.lightgalleryjs.com/demos/hash/
Expected result
You should see the previous slide, not close the gallery. On the other hand, when you pressed back on the first slide, the gallery should close but the page should not reload
Actual result
Page is reload
Additional context
Love your work and version 2 ;)
